Ezh1 Targets Bivalent Genes to Maintain Self-Renewing Stem Cells in Ezh2-Insufficient Myelodysplastic Syndrome

Summary: Polycomb repressive complex (PRC) 2 represses transcription through histone H3K27 trimethylation (H3K27me3). We previously reported that the hematopoietic-cell-specific deletion of Ezh2, encoding a PRC2 enzyme, induced myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) in mice, whereas the concurrent Ezh1 dele...
